With a needle, attach a piece of string on the goldfish. Make a large knot or tape the end inside the fish. Arrange five craft sticks in a pentagon. Glue ends leaving one joint unglued. Arrange the fish so it is placed in the middle of the pentagon. Place the thread between the two unglued sticks and glue them together. NOTES: 1. It is not easy for young boys to glue five sticks in the shape of pentagon. Ahead of time, make a template for the pentagon on a piece of cardboard. This way, boys can place their craft sticks on the pattern. 2. Low temperature glue gun works best for this project. Goldfish Card Add google eyes or a gem. Draw stripes on the fin and tail if you wish. Mount it on a folded card. (Idea and drawing of the card from RAFT handout) - 5 -
